Hi Wow John, nice jig! Mine is so much simpler but works quite effective. Same exact concept but it is held by a thin saw blade sandwiched on boards with the blade dull side up sticking out to whe...

Yep G&W are good. There is also don’t forget www.guitarmaking.co.uk neither...chisels, router bits, Rasps and now a guitar makers knife...plus kits for builds (what more do ya want!)

Stewmac cost me import tax around 50-80chf each time I limited my purchases from overseas on the specialised tools only. And I have a big problem finding finishing products (here in Switzerland) I hav...

Up for the 335 course @TV1010101 when the Bailey team are ready....

-- attachment is not available -- I like the look of that!! I'm surprised at the number of people who tackle a build like that early in their building career - I always assumed that would be one of th...

I think we've got a bench like that tucked away somewhere. Apparently, they can be dual purpose. Not that I recall using ours for any purpose at all! ?

@david-johnson09 I am using on the 3 of them nitrocellulose clear coat gloss for the body and nitrocellulose clear mat for the neck (I hate the sticky feel of gloss on the neck) The p90s one is the fi...
